BOSTON — Matt Moore keeps struggling when he warms up in the bullpen before the game. Then he dominates when he gets out to the mound.

Joe Maddon is eager to see the trend continue.

"Maybe we'll kick him in the shins before he goes out," the Tampa Bay manager said after Moore pitched his first career shutout, a two-hitter to beat the Boston Red Sox 3-0 on Monday night and give the Rays their sixth consecutive win.
